Well. It's Bordeaux. We were there for the wine festival, which was fun. But even then, one of the nights we were just walking in town and came across another large wine tasting event which was being held in the opera building. We could taste 160 Grand Cru wines, chatting with representatives from the chateaus.

La Villa Desvaux de Marigny is a B&B located in a residential area of Bordeaux, a 15-minute walk from Place Gambetta. It offers a garden and a terrace. Free WiFi is provided throughout the property.

"The friendliness of Bruno, the owner, and his willingness to help or explain things whenever needed. The decor is fabulous and the terrace and garden area just lovely, must be fantastic in the summer. The breakfast was superb with home-made yoghurt and bread, fresh fruit salad, eggs cooked to order - yum!"

Set in an 18th-century building, this hotel is located 900 metres from Bordeaux Saint Jean Train Station.

"The hotel reception is across the road in a lovely restaurant called La Tupina. The staff were very helpful (especially since we had a car that required parking). We stayed in the Orange Room for 2 nights...."

“Firstly, the staff at De L'Opera were so friendly and helpful! A huge thank you to Annabel at reception, she was delightful! We were provided with helpful local information.The room was pretty standard, it was clean and neat- it does need some updating but unless you intend on staying in the hotel, who cares! The bathroom was nice and clean, the water was always hot and we were provided with fresh towels and soap everyday. We had a room with a balcony, available on request, the view makes up for the fairly dull room. Stunning! Located Directly next to the opera house, the view and the hotel location were amazing! We could walk everywhere around the city and St pierre with ease. We were based on the 2nd floor, a small elevator worked a treat with the luggage. Basically, the hotel is basic and clean..the location makes it an ideal choice. The restaurants close by are wonderful and the main city centre tram/bus stop is a 5min walk.”

“Great small hotel within walking distance of sights and shopping in central Bordeaux. In a classic old building with all the comforts of a boutique hotel. Excellent breakfast in the courtyard that is a wine bar with tapas in the evening. Hermes amenities in the rooms.”

“This is a collaboration between Bernard Magrez and Joel Rubuchon and it works extremely well indeed. A beautiful old building just out from the city centre with luxurious rooms. The restaurant is Michelin 3* standard and the staff are absolutely tremendous. staying here was like staying at a private country house.”
